Inside Yoga with Catherine Annis

In this episode I have a wonderful conversation with Scaravelli inspired Yoga teacher and trainer Catherine Annis. I’ve been lucky enough to benefit from her classes over lockdown and have found them super-interesting because the focus is on our inside experience, not what the pose looks like. After a class when she was encouraging us to kind-of NOT follow her instructions, I really wanted to talk to her more. 

I am so grateful Catherine was generous enough to lend her time.In our chat we ponder on:

• How to move when your body doesn’t want to jump up and down any more
• How therapists and teachers’ voices can penetrate and wound
• Catherine’s dance training and how she came to yoga
• How we internalise critical voices as real truths
• How sexual trauma can be re-triggered from hip-opening 
• How to welcome more diversity and POC into yoga
• Competition in the yoga studio
• A great tip to empty your mind
• And of course Catherine’s tippity top tip for a great inner world
